A DOCTOE'S CANDID COUNSEL.
A DOCTOE'S CANDID COUNSEL. ADDRESSING a meeting of working-men at the Trecynon Public Hall on Satur- day night Dr Banks spoke in favour of the introduction of the pithead bath, an innovation which, at the same hall by practically the same audience, had, a fortnight previously, been favourably commented upon. The Doctor con. tended that the substitution of the new order of the bath for the old one would be beneficial from the stand- point of health. From the lips of a medical gentleman who has obtained considerable professional experience in a mining district this argument in favour of the bath proposal comes with no mean force. When the matter will have been duly discussed at the Federation lodges no doubt some steps will be taken towards translating into practice the theories propounded by mining students, endorsed by mining lecturers and approved by mining medical practi- tioners. In the same address Dr Banks dwelt upon an evil which is, alas, too prevalent in our mining districts. He referred to excessive tea-drinking. In these days when we hear and read so much of the evils of alcoholic beverages, -we are apt to forget that non-alcoholic beverages are also productive of danger to the human system, though, of course in a far lesser degree. The "cup that cheers" may not produce inebriety, but it is responsible for a large amount of indigestion. It would be well if our inveterate, immoderate tea-drinkers were to take the Doctor's advice to heart. As he remarked, the women are the great- est sinners in this respect. May we respectfully submit for their consider- ation the Doctor's words of wisdom concerning the perils of the tea- urn and also, by the way, his most valuable advice with regard to the open door and the open window. When we worship daily and and devoutly at the shrines of Bacchus and Nicotine and the pagoda of the Indian leaf, with windows and doors barred against the emissaiies of hygiene and health, it is little wonder that we are fast becoming a dyspeptic and con- t sumptive people.

How- ever, the Company did not want to press the charge. Evan Humphreys, fireman, gave evi- dence of having seen the lamp, and Mr. Bruoe Jones, manager, proved the rules. Fined 10s. each.

Evan Evans, collier, Abercynon, was charged with unlawfully wounding P.S. E. Bees in the execution of his duty. P.S. E. Rees, who had his head band- aged, Slai that about 10.45 p.m. on Nov. 25th he saw the prisoner and other men outside the Ynysmeurig Hotel. P.C. Jones was with witness. The men were drunk, and were cursing and swearing. The landlord's son was on the door try- ing to keep them out. He (witness) re- quested them to go away, but they re- fused. P.C. Jones and himself then re- moved them by force. The men then went away, and witness proceeded to the Thorn Hotel. After seeing that place closed, he returned alone along Mountain Ash-road. Witness was about 40 yards from the Workmen's Hall, when the prisoner passed him on the left side. Witness took no particular notice of him, but jufet after he passed he received a blow on the left ear. He fell on his knees, got up, and fell again, completely stunned. A young' man came to his as- ne40 sistance, and prisoner ran away. P.C. Jones then came on the scene. They went to prisoner's house, but he was not in. They then went to Dr. Griffiths' surgery, where witness had two or three stitches placed on his ear. P.C.'s Jones and Williams then arrested prisoner next door to where he lodged. Witness asked what he meant by throwing a stone at him, and he replied, "I had my own back." Prisoner was drunk at the time. Next morning prisoner was charged, and he said: H I don't remember much about it. I don't know what I was about." He was asked what he did it with, and he replied, H With a stone something like this (pointing to a &tone as big as a man's first). Prisoner: Why did you punch me about near the Ynysmeurig? Witness: I did not. It was P.C. Jones that caught hold of you. Prisoner: You punched me. The pub- lic has got to be protected a,s well as you. Ivor Jones, ,Toll.ier, Abercynon, said that on Monday night, about 11.16, he heard a blow and he saw some one fall, and afterwards saw P.S. Rees staggering. He had seen prisoner passing before he heard the blow, and saw him running away. Cross-examined by prisoner, witness said he did not see the stone thrown. In reply to the Clerk, he said that he did not see prisoner's face that night. He identified him that morning by his clothes. Prisoner had been placed amongst several men. P.C. David Jones corroborated P.S. R,ees' evidence. Dr. J. Griffiths said he first saw Sergt. Rees at 12 o'clock on Monday night. He was suffering from shock, and from a wound on the side of the head. There was a lacerated wound from the back of the top of the ear down to the centre of the ear in front. It completely divided the skin. The ear was separated from the attachment to the skull. He had to put four stitches in it. Then there were two other wounds on the ear. There was also a number of scratches, and a con- tusion of the temple muscle. Prisoner was committed to Quarter Sessions, bail being allowed in two sUm of .£50 each. DRUNKS.

Presentation at Aberaman.
Presentation at Aberaman. On Tuesday se'night an interesting pre- sentation took place on at the Castle Hotel, Aberaman, when Mr William J. Lloyd, late of Brook-street, was the recipient of a handsome marble clock from the committee' and members of the Bristol and West of England Provident Society. Mr Lloyd has been the secretary of the lodge almost since its inauguration,'and the society jhas- flourished during his term of office. The secretary of the presentation movement was Mr Thomas Warlow, whilst Mr C. A. Pullen acted as treasurer, and Mr Thomas J, Handley was the chairman of the coØJ- mittee, and of the above meeting. con" gratulatory speeches were made by Bre- then T. J. Handley, T. Warlow, Williams, Jones, and C. A. Pullen. The clock w&S' then formally handed over to Mr Lloyd. together with a beautiful address written on parchment, of which the following ijj the text:—" Bristol, West of England, South Wales Operatives' Trade and Pro- vident Society. Lodge No. i District Aberaman. To Brother William j. lAdr* Secretary.—We the undersigned, on be" half of the committee and members of the above lodge, desire to extend to yott our heartiest good wishes on the occasion of your marriage, and in a very humble way to show our appreciation of your services as secretary, by asking you to accept this- clock as a small token of the esteem 111 which you are held, both by past and pre" sent committees, and the members gener- ally. It is very gratifying to us as a ct11. mittee-and it should be very encouragIng to you, to know how very readily thernetn" bers responded to our suggestion, and we trust that you will look at this clock not for its money value, but as the free Will offering of many friends and brothers ill- this lodge, whose earnest desire is that yoU' and your good wife, may live a long and very happy life, and that your connection with our Lodge may be as useful and happy in the future, as it has been in the past' Thomas John Handley, chairman, Cbar"- les Alfred Pullen, treasurer Thomas War" low, Secretary,—Nov. 1907. Mr Lloyd suitably responded on behalf of his wife and himself, and thanked the heartily for the kindness shown toward him. The remainder of the prograIIlme consisted of songs contributed by brother E. Lewis, (twice,) bro. D. W. Griffiths" (twice,) and bro. W. J. Lloyd.

C Dr. Bankee, of Trecynon, is a great liever in fresh air as a prev,-litatile against the ills that assail the huJ)J body. Probably that was the reaSOn why at the meeting in the, Public naIl OIl Saturday night the audience, eepec- ially the occupants of the gallery, ha an opportunity cf inhaling copiOs draughts of this medicine. If fresh al1 is such a valuable health factor theI1 certainly the well-aired Trecynon pnblio Hall should be at once turned into a toriiini. It would make an ideal telllp of hygiene.
